I wish I can give more than 5 stars for this gym. Everyone including the community is awesome here. Don't hesitate to get SweatShop Union a try!

If you're thinking about being in the best physical shape of your life look no further!

I wish I can give more than 5 stars for this gym. I can feel and see the positive impacts of going to this gym after a few visits. The trainers are awesome and great community in the gym!

I don’t really write a review but when I do, I mean it!

This is by far the best gym that I have ever attended. I’ve only been there for 3 months and have seen incredible results compared to the previous gyms that I have attended. Brian, Mina and Gailanne are an amazing team. Keep up the great work guys.

At 21: 10 on Dec 8 2021 heading northbound on Hurontario from QEW I witnessed one of your trucks harassing another vehicle. I do not know the context and perhaps I'm mistaken, and assume the owner was not present. Please be respectful of others while driving and lead by example.

Sweatshop Union is above and beyond any 'gym' I have had a membership with, over the last 2 decades of my life. It's more than just a gym. It is a holistic marriage of body, mind and spirit connection. It invites whatever level you are looking for. Not just exercise, movement and fitness, but offers amazing courses, tools, unique and comprehensive challenges, and an opportunity to tap into a deeper level of Self. The unique and super intricately guided classes, gifted and professional facilitators and ambience is second to none. I feel like I can't get enough, and my body craves the discipline, which has shown in my results over the last several short months. If you are looking for far beyond a clock in, sweat, clock out environment, you need to meet Brian Douglas and see if you are a right fit for this tight and aligned supportive community, which is more like a family. Just one visit and tour of his stellar facility can change your life! Diane

This gym will CHANGE YOUR LIFE! I've joined big box gyms and also worked with personal trainers in the past but the QUALITY you get from Sweatshop is like no other. Brian and the team of trainers will give you great workouts and keep you motivated, but what matters the most is longevity.consistency.and commitment. Brian and Mina host challenges that shifts your perspective on foods, living a meaningful life, and being purposeful in how you combine it all to become the best version of YOU. They are always available for a chat or some support and the community they've built is just incredible. There's a reason that even after moving 3 hours away, I'm STILL an active member via their online program and have been in the best shape of my life. This gym will never disappoint. Brian really embodies his motto "It's not training, it's personal. "

You will not regret joining this gym!

I first heard of Sweatshop Union from my sister. She had my nephews enrolled in Brian’s dryland training and when I had mentioned that I wanted to get into shape post pregnancy she highly recommended Brian. She’s a physiotherapist and so I could trust she knew a superior trainer when she saw one. I was never an athlete but prior to kids I would go to gym to do the typical cardio and a few machines. I decided to sign up for some semi-private training with Brian so that I could learn good form and technique and get back into the gym. My original plan was to complete my semi-private lessons for a few months then head back to the ORC where I was already a member. Once I tried the Sweatshop bootcamp classes, I was hooked and knew there was no other gym for me.

The studio offers fitness classes, a variety of personal growth workshops, as well as nutritional guidance. There is a genuine desire to foster the success of each member. When COVID hit, Brian immediately pivoted to online classes and there was no impairment in the quality of the classes he offered.

The classes are top notch and led by amazing trainers (like Mina and Brian). There are new themes every 5 or 6 weeks. The workouts within each theme progress on a weekly basis so you are never bored. The classes are small so you feel like you are getting a semi-private experience each time. The studio offers a live zoom link to each class that makes it even more convenient if you’re not yet comfortable returning to the gym or if you’re away from the city

Brian takes such pride in his studio and it resonates from the effort put into each theme, the cleanliness of the studio and the quality trainers he brings on to share his vision.

I have belonged to many, many gyms in the past but I have never experienced the results and success I have with Sweathshop. I am a much happier and stronger version of myself both physically and mentally. My experience is not unique. I have yet to meet someone who has regretted becoming a member here.

Four years later and I can’t imagine belonging to any other gym!

Sweatshop Union makes working out fun! The studio helped me achieve my strength and fitness goals through concentrated, wholistic approaches. Brian and his team go above and beyond to design science-based workouts while creating a friendly, high energy environment and a positive, motivating sense of community. This experience is unique and unparalleled by other gyms. This is my favourite gym/training studio! I highly recommend Sweatshop Union.

I love the gym. Great community. The classes are well organized and super fun. I have been getting amazing results since becoming a member. I would recommend to anyone looking to lose weight or get in shape. Brian is amazing!

I am so grateful for Sweatshop Union! I have been training with Brian and his team for almost 2 years, and I can honestly say that it has changed my life. The Shop is clean, the training is personalized, and the staff is energetic. Love my experience there:)

This is the best boot camp training program in the GTHA. Their programs are intense, balanced and leave you stronger but not in pain. I wish they would open up more locations, but I know the pandemic got in the way of that.

I found other gyms to be lacking a balance which Sweatshop Union provides. There’s strength, conditioning, resistance, cardio and best of all yoga and stretching at the end of EVERY workout AND they manage to always stay on-time and hit all the areas.

The trainers are professional, non-judgmental and very pleasantly motivating. You will feel stronger and better about yourself every class because the classes are difficult but fun.

The equipment is top-notch and you can tell a lot of thought and care has been put into the workouts, whether it be the music or the lighting.

Really looking forward to having this spread through Canada. I’ve been to Orange Theory Fitness, many other gyms and group trainings as well but nothing compares.

The owner, Brian, runs this location and ensures his clients are satisfied.

I've been going to sweatshop about 3x a week for the last 7 weeks and have dropped 20lbs while converting alot of my mass to functional muscle. Without the use of their weight-loss and nutritional services. I can only imagine how much better the results would be if I did.

The bootcamp classes are amazing and they really push you. I look forward to them every week!

I have been a member at Sweatshop Union for more than 5 years. The workouts are amazing! The instructors are amazing! The facility is amazing!

Sweatshop Union pivoted well during COVID and has kept me motivated and healthier overall with Zoom workouts that I can participate in from my garage! This gym is more than just working out. Brian and his staff motivate us to be better in all aspects of life, from nutrition to setting life goals. I'm continually improving as a mom, business owner and human thanks to Sweatshop Union! Thank you!

Great facility that is well maintained. Lot's of great amenities for those looking to stay in shape or train competitively.

Love the atmosphere, people and the equipment selection! Always leave feeling accomplished.

Fantastic Gym and the people are wonderful. Great setup & extremely clean. Would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone. Give it a try. You won't regret it.

This place is great! Trainers are committed and very knowledgeable professionals. The environment is positive and the group of people training in there are nice, friendly and supportive. SweatShop cares about the people, not only their physical development, but to create a balance between mind body and soul.

Sweatshop Union is the best. I participate in the kids dry land program and the trainers that train our class are really nice.

I love SweatShop Union! Five stars!
Unfortunately, I only go to Oakville once a year over the Christmas holidays, and Brian accommodates my visit with a clean, professional, challenging and motivational place to workout. I am always pleasantly surprised by their unique exercises and use of all sorts of different equipment, that my gym back home simply doesn’t incorporate. They also don’t short the client on properly stretching after the completion of the full class time.
If you are looking for a gym with smaller classes, unique yet challenging moves, attentive instructors and top notch customer service - contact Brian at SweatShop Union.
Thanks again Brian, I love working out with you and your team. Until next Christmas, Joanne.

I love everything about this gym!
The staff, the ambiance the music and all of the amazing classes offered.
If you're looking for a personal training studio in the Mississauga/Oakville area do yourself a favor and join the Sweat Shop!

I have always been a member of one gym or the other but never anticipated or expected that when I walked in to SweatShop Union and met with Brian that it would provide me with a life changing experience and total balance of mind, body and soul. Thanks to Brian and his team, I am pretty close to be the best possible me. Thank you again Brian and your team. Now I know that I will never need to join another gym.

I love this gym because the trainers are nice and knowledgeable.
Everybody is very friendly and I get a great workout every time I go!

Brian and his team are amazing trainers, they’re so knowledgeable with all the science behind their workout routines is on another level.
The facility is always so clean and well organized. The other people there are so positive it’s a great environment.
Ive recommended and mentioned this gym to almost everyone i talk to lol! They actually care about getting to achieve your goals.

Love my workouts at SweatShop Union! Group classes with not more than 12 people are both fun and engaging with a variety of equipment. The instructors are approachable and optimistic. Always give you feedback and encouragement, or suggestions to challenge yourself further.

Best of your time. Worth of your time. They work really hard to make you work hard. Very friendly environment over there. Great place to get your sweat out.

Sweatshop union is a wondrous and great place for training and remaining fit. Its filled with hardworking, inspiring and caring individuals who are remarkable in their own ways. Everyone is so cooperative, positive and supportive that the moment you end your first workout you are tied in a bond. The atmosphere is very welcoming, pleasant and fun. All the trainers are very professional. Bryan n Sasha, are my most favourite ones, they are very sweet and guide you every second of your workout to ensure you are doing proper moments and your goals are being achieved. The entire equipment and facility is great and remarkably clean. A very hygienic environment is provided. Overall, an excellent place for working out and i will totally recommend it to everyone out there

What a great place, clean, great equipment, amazing staff! Everyone that walks into the place from members to staff is supportive and motivational. After 6 weeks I have lost so much weight and inches and gained muscle. I would highly recommend it!

I highly recommend Sweatshop Union to anyone who wants to get in shape, lose weight, or gain muscle! The trainers are amazing! They are so knowledgeable, caring and encouraging! They will push you to your limit, and will motivate you to go further then you believed you could. The facility is very clean, and has very high quality equipment. It is truly a life changing environment!

This is an awesome facility. The staff are really helpful and knowledgeable, the members are lovely. If you want to stay motivated to keep fitness as a lifestyle (because let's face is, the chain gyms can be very un-motivating) then this is where you should go. I highly recommend!

Phenomenal facility, amazing staff, highly knowledgable trainers who are committed to helping you achieve your goals. Overall, a postive, fun, motivating and clean environment.

I could not stress enough how important it was, for me to just SHOW UP, to my first class at Sweat Shop Union class. I remember being in a lot of pain from my job, my massage therapist said it appears I have scar tissue built up along my spine and it was basically from using my body wrong and not engaging the right muscles when I was doing the physicalities of my job. Basically I didn't understand how to hold myself right and engage my muscles, and strength training was a recommendation for me by her self and my chiropractor. I decided to sign up with Brian at Sweatshop Union because it was something I had thought about for a long time and for whatever reason didn't go for it. My number one advice to anybody thinking about joining is just come, just show up just start doing it and let the results speak for themselves. I went with the unlimited and made a commitment to my self of minimum 3 days a week, I commited and I persevered. After being with Sweatshop Union for three months I experienced incredible strength at work, I was able to sleep a full night without any pain, I no longer needed to go to my massage therapist and I haven't been back to my chiropractor. I had built a lot of strength I was able to hold my self up in side plank at yoga with zero pain in my wrists, it was almost unbelieveable, and I was feeling very very good. My meal plans, goal setting and coaching from Brian and his unlimited plan and his team was not only functional but I really started to feel my self inspiring others, and I saw my body changing and taking on such an amazing shape! I think by far in the last two years the happiest part of my life has been during these three months and I'm happy to say that I'm commited to going strong well into the new year! Thanks to Brian and his incredible team, I feel like I have a home away from home where I can escape the stresses of my life and really rebuild myself in a positive way. So, if there's anyone out there that's struggling with stress or just general lethargicness this is definitely something I would recommend. Brian's Universal approach captures so many important aspects of many work out styles and encapsules it in a well-rounded union of sweat. His ability to tap you into your true self, spiritual awareness and self-love has made this one of the most well-rounded in-depth workout programs I've ever been a part of and by far my favourite. Every week is designed to cater to every muscle and if you go consistently every week, your entire body will be worked in a calculated science based crazy design that I still cant comprehend. I know I will never find anything else, that compares. I am very grateful that I showed up that day, it wasnt easy at first, it challanges you to grow, but the results are by far the best I have ever experienced from training. I have no doubt I will be successful in the Military one day, and I will have Brian to thank for it.

Sweatshop Union is a phenomenal facility and I can highly recommend them! I have been working out my whole life but since joining Sweatshop Union two years ago I am the strongest and fittest I have ever been in my life. No two sessions are ever the same so you are constantly adapting and improving, and the trainers always manage to push me much further than i would be able to push myself, while still keeping the classes fun and innovative.

I recently had my third child, and I'm certain that training at Sweatshop Union for the past two years helped me stay strong throughout my pregnancy, which definitely made both pregnancy and labour easier. The trainers were great while I was pregnant and modified the workouts for me so that I could continue working out throughout my pregnancy.

Brian and the other trainers at Sweatshop Union are passionate about their work, genuinely care about every client and have a positive attitude which makes training really fun. The bootcamp classes feel like personal training because the classes are small and the trainers are so knowledgeable and attentive. Sweatshop Union is much more than a gym, it's a community that goes beyond just fitness, but also includes nutrition, meditation and general well-being. I can highly recommend Sweatshop Union!
